Just wanted to show off this bad boy, my first-ever hat! Made with help from my mom, for a dear friend's baby girl.

The last thing I knit (before this) was a simple scarf, 10+ years ago! Glad to be knitting again!



I know it's really nothing special, but being the type who's easily sidetracked/distracted/frustrated and frequently gives up on projects like this - I'm pretty impressed with myself for completing it!

I used a size 9(US) needle on circular needles. The yarn used is called Lavender Sparkle, and I believe I got it from Hobby Lobby. I'm not sure if it's really visible in the picture, but there's an iridescent sparkle throughout! ✨✨

Looking forward to making her more and more hats as she grows, and as I grow as a knitter as well!

That's a cute hat. And I applaud your intention to encourage your friend's little girl into hat-wearing.
